ART

Jess (Jessika) Tarr creates paintings and drawings that are both playful and dark. Merging surreal narratives with figurative elements, her work is marked by fluid lines, a graphic aesthetic, and an illustrative seductiveness. Her pieces unfold like stories through a mix of fragmented portraiture, symbolism, and dream-related themes.
